Today is National HIV Testing Day

Today is a very important day for all of us to practice and pay attention to. National HIV Testing Day is all about sexual health and HIV awareness. Take a moment to realize and practice something that could save your life or the lives of your loved ones.

Let's start this uncomfortable conversation will this factual statement.

ANYONE can become infected with HIV.

Do not, for even one second, believe that this cannot happen to you or anyone else you know. There are plenty of people now infected with the virus that once believe that themselves. You acting as though invisible to this virus lends you very vulnerable to infection. Protect yourself and everyone you love, act constantly against HIV.

That is what today is all about. Preparedness, awareness, and education about HIV.

For instance, did you know that every 9 1/2 minutes someone in the United States becomes infected with HIV.

Once you have looked at where the virus is running rampant, you might want to have yourself checked. Wait, let me say this.

WE ALL NEED TO BE TESTED.

No matter who you are, what relationship you are in, or any other excuses you can think of. This is a horrible and life threatening virus that needs to be kept under control. You, your family, your friends, and everyone else you care for should be tested.
